Considering the pistils as indicators, you can harvest due to the curling/amber coloration of the pistils.However a more accurate method of determination is a +30x jewelers scope, so that you can inspect the trichomes. (eg.Milky = psychoactive high)

Happy Growing.:weed:

Just on long range visual, you're getting close but I'd wait a few more weeks. Jamo is right on-best indicator I've used was scoping the trics to see if they are clear, milky or amber.

I am on my first grow as well, i think I read that once about 20% of the trics are Amber is optimal for harvest.

My preference is once I only see milky trics, I flush my indoor hydro grows and only water on the outdoor girls. Usually 10-14 days will make you smile...

Just started my flush though I may be a little late as I see amber beginning to come in. I wouldn't call it more than 5% though. Do you use a final flush solution or just run water for the last couple weeks?

my hydro says to taper the ppm towards the end which is the flush. what is this plain water shit for two weeks?
breeder said 70 days after sexing, day 70 was milky with some amber, I cut her down, and it was perfection.

As a noob here I'm not saying flushing with just water is right. Just what I've interpreted from what I've read!

You wait until the calyxes swell(the spikey bits the pistols come out of) first, this is no where near done...its mainly white hairs...if you harvest now you will get bugger all. wait and your yield will be vastly more.
